There you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and visit Ngoc Son Temple. You can also have a look at the Old Quarter. Wander around the old streets and some ancient houses to explore Vietnamese culture.

If needed, give Ss a quick review of reported speech (e.g. verb tense, pronouns, time expressions, etc.) Divide the class into side A and side B. Side A will say some sentences in direct speech for side B to change into indirect speech. Then side B says some sentences in indirect speech for side A to change into direct speech. 2 .Ss work individually to complete this exercise. Then they compare their answers in pairs before T gives corrective feedback as a whole class. 3 . Do the first sentence with the class as an example. Ss then work individually to rewrite the sentences before receiving correction from T. 4 .Ss can work in pairs to complete this exercise. Remind them they can choose from the verbs ask, wonder, (not) be sure, have no idea, (not) know, (not) decide, (not) tell to report these questions. 5 First, ask the whole class to agree on five questions they would like to ask about you. Write them on the board. Prepare two different versions of answers to these five questions. (The more contradictory the two versions are, the more fun the game will be) Write each version on a separate piece of paper so that you do not forget them. Then divide the class into two groups. Tell Ss that one group will stay inside the classroom and the other outside. Each group will listen to you for the answers to the questions and the group will then have to report to the other group what they have heard from you. Grammar Exercise 1 : Key: Mai: ‘I’m too tired and don’t want to go out.’ Mai: ‘I want to be a designer.’ Mai’s parents: ‘Design graduates won’t find jobs easily.

TEACHER AND STUDENTS’ PREPARATION : 1.Language content Vocabulary : knowledge about teen stress and pressure Grammar : 2.Techniques : group work , pair work, communicative approach 3.teaching aids :, posters, pictures III. PROCEDURES: T’s Ss’ Activities CONTENT Write ‘Life skills’ on the board and ask Ss what they think it means. Ask them to give some examples of life skills. Explain the words in the Extra vocabulary box. Use a dictionary or translate the words since they are all abstract concepts. 1. Ss work in pairs to complete this task. Go around and offer help if needed. Otherwise, T may turn this into a group competition. Prepare red paper strips with the five skill categories, and blue paper strips with the skill examples. In small groups Ss will match the red strips to the blue strips. The first group to have the correct answers is the winner. 2 . Give Ss plenty of time to look closer at each skill to discuss the questions in pairs. Then, as a whole class, go through each skill and elicit from them the answers to the questions. Write on the board two lists: one containing the skills Ss think are necessary for Vietnamese teenagers, and one containing those that they think are not. As an alternative, Ss work in small groups. After their discussion, each group should cross out the life skills which they think are not suitable for Vietnamese teens. As a whole class, compare the results from different groups. Remember each group will need to explain their decisions. 3 Ss work in small groups to make their own list for Vietnamese teens. They can base it on the text and add their own information. Now the class needs to combine all the group lists to make a big list for the whole class. Write this list on a poster, or on the board. 4 Ask Ss to copy down the ‘big list’ they have created in 3 in their notebooks. Ss then work individually: each student goes through the list and evaluates how good heshe is with each skill. Then Ss work in pairs to share their results. If time allows, each pair reports the results to the class. Based on the results, the class will be able to identify three skills that most Ss in the class think they are now good at, and three skills that most of them think they need to improve on.

Ss work individually first, then compare the answers with their partner. Ask them to discuss and explain each person’s own decision if their answers are not the same. Then provide feedback as a class. For each answer, ask Ss to refer back to the text to find the relevant information.
